"We're thrilled to have Jacob return for his second season with the Havoc," Detulleo said. "We look forward to Jacob wearing the "C" again and leading our team to another successful season. His toughness, attitude, and perseverance in the face of adversity were a great example for his teammates. If the players can follow in his footsteps, they'll have a great chance of winning a championship this season."

Jacob was diagnosed with leukemia at the end of April 2016. He currently receives treatments through the local St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. He is an avid Los Angeles Kings fan, will be with the team all season long, and is sure to get the true Havoc experience skating out with the team and signing autographs.

"I am thankful and excited to be on the Huntsville Havoc team and lead them to victory," Brown said.
